Hi,

When I shutdown the windows xp, it will display a message "It is save now to
turn off the computer". Is there a way to make PC shutdown automatically
without using a third party software?

Thanks.

Hi,

Does your motherboard or BIOS support auto shutdown feature?

Hi,

Control Panel/Power Options, you need to enable APM. It is not enabled by
default on installation.

Where is the place to enable APM in Power Options?
